Which Service Fits Your Situation?
- Waking with bites but seeing no bugs? Start with an inspection, then add a K9 search if a visual check comes up empty.
- Renting in Bakersfield or Oildale? Tell the landlord or manager in writing first, because owners usually arrange treatment.
- Older East Bakersfield house with wood trim? Ask about heat paired with crack and crevice treatment.
- Want nothing sprayed on the mattress? Ask about heat, with steam for the couch and cushions.
- Bugs in a work truck, camper or travel trailer as well? Tell us so we can plan steam or heat for it.
- Activity in nearly every room, or back after an earlier job? Ask whether fumigation suits your detached house.
